Welcome to the Website for Bishop Auckland & District Angling Club

IMPORTANT NEWS FOR MEMBERS Please note:- 
The angling club are pleased to announce that the River TEES Egglestone Water is now avaliable for members to fish with immediate effect. Remember you need to renew your club memebrship or join the club before fishing club waters.

Dear member,

It has been brought to the attention of the BAADC board that there are scurrilous rumours circulating within the club that a catch and release policy has been introduced on the Nature Reserve beat for this season.

Please note this is a totally unfounded rumour and the board wish to reiterate that no changes have been made to any of the club's fishing rules this year.

 
If you have questions regarding this or any other issue or please email the club    bishopaucklandac@aol.com
The angling club along with the EA are carrying out some important bank improvement work on Saturday 10th March 2012 at Escomb. If any member wishes to help out with this vital work please can you contact the club via email or leave your name at Witton castle lakes on 01388 488691. 

Alternatively you can meet us down at Escomb on the Saturday morning at 8.30am, the more help we get the quicker we can do the work.  

 

Membership of the Angling club is available now

 Bishop Auckland and District Angling Club offers a wide choice of angling opportunities for the discerning angler. Based in County Durham - often referred to as one of England's best kept secrets - the Club welcomes members and visitors and offers:

* 20 miles of fishing on the River Wear for Salmon, Sea Trout, Brown Trout & Grayling
* Prime Day Ticket Stillwater fishing for Rainbow Trout  (Troutmaster Fishery) at Witton Castle Lakes   BADAC members are eligable for a discount on Ticket prices on production of current memebrship card.
* Map Book of the various Beats - with named pools 

The fishing beats of BAaDAC start up in Weardale just below the picturesque village of Witton-Le-Wear stretching downstream to the village of Croxdale just outside Durham City. We believe that we offer some of the best fishing in the area, with various methods allowed depending on the beat being fished and the time of year.

A lot of the beats consist of double bank fishing allowing good access to all our waters. The Board of BAaDAC are committed to continuously developing the fishing for our members and we have a team of hard working bailiffs committed to maintaining the river banks.

Membership of the Angling club is available now by completing the application form available on the website. Passport photographs are required by the Angling club for production of the members ID card.
